Drastic effect on battery after downgrading to Lollipop - General Questions and Answers

My LG G4 H818P came with Marshmallow 6.0 installed. It had bugs, unrootable and bad battery life. So, after a week or so, I used LGUP to flash a stock Lollipop kdz and then rooted it. Both of the procedures went just fine.
But the battery life has worsened drastically, let alone improve. For instance, I checked the battery at 92% before going to sleep and woke up in the morning with 71% but the whole time the screen was turned off and nothing was going on background. The battery doesn't even last 1.5 hours when I'm watching a movie or browsing the internet.

have you calibrated youre battery....???
charge your phone 100% and
calibrate it using battery calibration app from play store
it requied root
when youre phone is full charged 100% open this app and give it root acess and click calibrate
after that unplug ur charger and reboot your device
and discharge youre battery with normal use and after discharging to 10-5% charge it again... and its done
and if you want more battery juice
use these apps
amplify battery extender(requires root & xposed frame work)
powernap (req.. root & xposed)
if you dont have xposed
use l speed app download it from google play and toggle main tweaks (just need root)
see the magic when you left your phone at night for 100% at the morning it will be 98-99%
its awesome app just try it (it supports all devices)

Thanks a lot. I didn't try calibrating because I thought a decalibrated battery would show weird & incorrect percentage. Anyway I'll let u know after I do it

[Q] [HELP] Draining battery

Hello,
I need some help with my evo...i have it running on the fresh 3.5 ROM and netarchy-toasts kernel, latest version and all. I am overclocking as well, but nothing to drastic. Until recently, the battery life on my phone went into the ***** literally. Before it went 24 hours plus with medium to heavy usage. Now i can leave the screen on and literally (no exaggeration) watch the battery drain sliver by sliver. I just did a complete data wipe and reflashed the rom and kernel both in hopes of resolving the issue, but its still draining. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I really need this fixed but cant figure it out on my own :/
edit: the only time this happens is when the screen is on, when the screen is off it STILL DOES drain more than usual, but nothing compared to what happens when its unlocked. My though is that an app is running in the background eating up my batter life, but i have no clue what it is or how to locate it.
This is what the battery usage is looking like. Always Android system up at the top

Disable your mobile connection when not using it turn auto brightness off off auto sync but the main factor is.the mobile connection turn that off when not using and u we get better battery results
What's gd for these kind of things is juice defender

I forgot to mention that i have juicedefender installed already, and set cpu with profiles as well. one of the profiles is for when the screen is off, set for 300/300 (not accurate, but is set around that)
If its going as fast as you say (literally draining in an hour or so) I would say check your batter, try a new one. Otherwise you already have juice defender (which I tried and it really didn't do much else) so everything should be covered. Try wiping Dalvik cache, also try wiping batter stats (both are in clockwork recovery under the "advanced" tab.
Good luck and sorry if this doesn't help
Hey,
Download Juice Defender and AutoKiller fro the market and watch the Magic. me and you have the same phone and same rom. Note: delete any tsk Managers ou have because they will interfere with juice defender..

[Q] battery problem

My DS is s-off and rooted. I've tried many different roms. For the last 2 weeks suddenly a problem came up.
I use Battery Monitor Widget from the market and battery is recognised as 1600mAh (not 1450)
As u can see from the screenshot below it charges fine but when reaches 88% stays there because it is fully charged at 4210mV.
That tme i entered recovery where it said that my battery was 100% full and i wiped bat statistics which also changed the percentage in the widget (big leap from 88 to 100%)
Same thing happens even if i change battery capacity from settings of the widget!
Same thing happens with every widget or rom
Is there a way to change capacity in the root of the phone, because maybe this is the reason to my problem.
Help will be appreciated. Thanks

i've tried many times but it didn't work just like wiping battery stats from recovery
hmm, that is very odd then. Have you tried different battery monitors to see what what they say the ma rating is?
You can over ride the battery capacity using BMW I too use it and it thinks mine was 1600 also but I set it manually to 1400
Within BMW try Settings ...monitor..... battery capacity = 1400

And just by typing this I lost 2 percent
Flash Matr1x to start. See if that helps. Also, look at what apps are running. settings>apps>running. See if anything there is on a lot, and stop it. Turn auto sync off.
I get about 20 hours of decent usage with this setup
every kernel and rom combo is going to perform differently. I find the best way to get the most out of my battery is to calibrate the battery by fully charging, allowing the battery to fully discharge, and then repeating those two steps once or twice more.
You without me is like Harold Melvin without the Blue Notes...
download battery calibration app from market, fully charge battery (94 or 95%), then calibrate using the app. Allow your battery to fully discharge (until it shuts itself off), and finally charge your phone completely with it still off. You should notice an amazing enhancement in battery life.

what I do is: (Use NSTools, its easier to make this setups!)
- Use LiveOC on 110%
- Overclock to 1110 Mhz - 200 Mhz
- Activate Deep Idle
- Use Lionheart governor.
Try this and see if it helps.
Turn off GPS and nfc if you're not using it! And wifi if you're not connected to a network, I think that may help something!

How about you tell us your on screen time?
Seems like your phone is on for quite sometime given that is it at 41%. Usually during a normal day mine usually consumes 28% with 2 hours of on screen time.
If you're hitting 4-6 hours of on screen time, that battery stat is NORMAL.
Thank you guys for your suggestion but i think my battery is just too old
im ordering some spare batteries for amazon
Tell me what you think about these

seems normal,my device would be faster to drain if same condition as well(3g mode),but mine battery are not new.
mostly what take ur battery is screen time,which is normal for an hour of it,other only drain >12%,seems ok in my point of view.
actually,this kinda battery life is better than my previous lumia 620 or my bro's xperia v
ps: power saving mode dint do too much different,i advice u just turn it off.

I can confirm very similar issue with the new MI3 firmware - sometimes the battery lasts only 6-7 hours (when in pocket- not on screentime) with power saving ON, wifi and 3g OFF
I have rooted I9105P

Terrible idle battery drain!

I have a terrible battery drain when my phone is idle. Tried everything, but nothing solved it. Ever since Lollipop I have this issue.
Clean flashed MM and still nop. Flashed ElementalX 6.04 yesterday which still couldn't solve it. This is frustrating :crying::crying:
I have disabled everything too. No Wifi, data, bluetooth, location...etc (My phone is not a smart phone anymore)
Only adaptive brightness is enabled.
Yesterday I fully charged and went to sleep to find out it has drained 28% after a 7 hours sleep. Removed all the unpopular apps (suspicious apps) as well. BetterBatteryStatus says my phone has been in DEEP SLEEP throughout the whole time too.
Please give me a solution

How old is your phone?? You might need to replace the battery. Especially you've already done everything from kernel, to clean flash to disabling apps and settings
your bstats also tells no abnormality? how about its partial wakelocks? can you post those so we can check it out?

According to BBS my phone has been in deep sleep throughout the whole time. I'm assuming its the battery, I need to replace it may be.
I charged my phone again. I will post partial wakelocks too in few hours time.
Thanks alot
Even though it may not make a huge difference but you can try draining the battery out to 0 (until the phone can't stay on even after a force power on) and a full charge (30 mins to an hour overcharging after you see full battery indicator).. Gluck.
I replaced my battery, I was getting hard reboots as well. But wow with a new battery and marshmallow my nexus is like a new device.
99% no or unknown signal.
That could be the cause of your drain, when the phone has no signal or poor signal it will use a lot of battery to keep the connection alive. Set aeroplane mode on
